Introduction

The aim of this revised Saturday study session is to share palliative care knowledge among our GP community, looking at how specialist and generalist palliative care can work together, exploring common themes experienced within practice.

This Study Day will cover:

  • Understanding the Condition: Disease trajectories and prognostication
